A number of distinguished educators have been heard with much interest the ’ past two days. if you want to make money go J into tlie chewing gum business. That's one line that evidently hasn't suffered from the depression. ! Any way the Wrigley outfit shows 1 1 a total business of over nine mili lion the first nine months of the 1 year and a profit of over one-third of that, which is a fine gross and a very good margin of profit as such things go this year. In fact it is an increase over last year. Tonight at Monroe will occur thi' old fashioned pole raising and democratic meeting. It should be |an outstanding event of the campaign and a large crowd is expected. Samuel Jackson of Fort Wayn ', lelative of the famous Andrew who ' was in his day an outstanding democratic leader and Mrs. Faye I Smith-Knapp, local woman speaker will be on the program. Go down and catch the enthusiasm. There is no question that the coming session of the legislature 1 will be one of the most important i held in years including as it will changes in the greatest problem in government, that of taxes. Make no mistake in selecting those who a ill do this big job tor you. In this district we do not fear the results for we feel sure the voters will return to office Senator Gottschalk and George Saunders, experienced, trustworthy men who will fight for I your interests. Certainly thats' what we should do. In imposing a high protective tariff on 130 articles —a preliminaryy step — the new conservative government of Canada, has struck at the Grundy-Hoover tariff. There ; is the thinnest disguise as to what i nation is the object of this eclus-1 ion measure or why such exclusion ' has begjfcuUMoked. Ostensibly the | duties < are' l *?ntended to safeguard i key industries in the dominion and i reduce unemployment, but the el -i ment of retaliation is not to he I avoided. » * • This slap at the shot t-sighted American tariff, however, is only an initial move. Canada's g neral tariff mt asure is yet I to be drafted. —Louisville Courieri Journal. The state is finally going to act I in tlie Marion lynching case, not | because they want to but because they must under the law and this is being urged with insistency and determination it seems. The law says: “Any sheriff or other officer having any person in his lawful custody, who shall unlawfully suffer or permit such a person to be taken from such custody and lynched, shall be deemed guilty of failure of official duty, and on conviction, shall be fined not exceeding I SI,OOO and shall be removed from such office and his office declared vacant. Tlie prosecution against such sheriff or other officer in any case shall be instituted by the attorneygeneral, by presentation in the proper circuit or criminal court, on an affidavit against such sheriff or other officer, sworn to by any citizen of this state, charging him with such offense, and indorsed by the at- ! torney-general * * * In case of any such taking and lynching j of such person from the cusi tody of such sheriff or other officer having him in charge shall be prima facie evidence of the failure of official duty on the part of such sheriff or other officer." o ♦ — 1 ♦ BIG FEATURES OF RADIO i ' » * Friday’s 5 Best Radio Features Copyright 1930 by UP.

Whereas, it has pleased in His all wise, mysterious providence, to call from us to His realm above, the spirit of our departed sister, and while we bow in humble submission to the Divine call, it is but fitting that we bear testimony to her good qualities and express in this manner our deep sorrow to her i sorrow stricken husband ami daugh-j te.s for them it is an irreparable! loss.

“One-night stands” REMEMBER the medicine shows that used to come to town? With minstrel music and flaring gaslight, the eloquent “Doctor” sold a good many bottles of his marvelous elixir. No chance to discover that it was only molasses and water! He was gone next day to another town, playing “one-night stands.” Modern advertising and selling methods are very, very different. Merchants and manufacturers are in business day after day, year after year, at the same address. They need your continued custom. They must tell the story of their merchandise truthfully to keep your confidence. They must offer honest values to insure your satisfaction. And they do—in the advertising pages. Read the advertisements. There’s no surer, easier way to economical buying. They show you what you want at the lowest price and tell you where it may be had. You can go direct to get it or order it delivered. You save time, save money. Read the advertisements—and read them regularly. I Guide your buying by your reading .. advertised products are worthy ones. Decatur Daily Democrat
